When attending a meeting so bad, dire or tiresome that an inner urge to issue profanities spills over into your exchange with colleagues or meeting obsessed morons.
Chair : and now shall we proceed on to any other business?

Chair : you have Meeting Tourettes, please **** off
As the modern form of an ancient torture, death by 1000 meetings is defined as the annihilation of a project, action or ultimately a person due to time wasted in having to attend a seemingly infinite amount of non-productive meetings.
This is in direct correlation to the mathematical theory which states WORK = 1 / MEETINGS, as the amount of meetings increases, the amount of tangible work gets divided to oblivion.
